The Surat police had on Wednesday summoned him for questioning by serving notice to various ashrams in Gujarat run by the father-son duo. The whereabouts of Sai are not known to the police and the advertisements say anything about where he is holed up.
"Our client has not gone away and will not run away," the advertisements, issued through his advocate Gautam Desai, said.
The advertisements alleged that the FIR against him was fabricated and facts in it were manipulated by the complainant. It further said that his client will take a legal recourse to protect himself.
The police had on Wednesday summoned Sai to appear before them by slapping a notice on him, in connection with the sexual assault case lodged against him and his father by two sisters. Police sources said the notice was served to his ashrams asking Sai to appear before police immediately.
